alobearI do seem to have been to the cinema a lot lately, and have enjoyed all the films I've been to see - though none of them enormously. Wall-E continues this trend - it was fun but not funny, sad but not heart-breaking, entertaining but not exciting, clever but not amazing. As always with Pixar, the graphics and characterisation were wonderful, but it somehow left me relatively unmoved.
Maybe it's not recent cinema - maybe it's me.
Looking back over the entries for this year, though I've found three films I thought were excellent - two were old films I got on DVD (American History X and Driving Miss Daisy) but one was a new one - Charlie Wilson's War. And there are several more, lighter films I've reported as "really enjoying" (eg Penelope, Definitely Maybe), so I don't think I should despair either of cinematic quality or my own
